Chapter Eighty-Three: Dragon and Tiger Ding (Third Update)
Jinmian Langjun Cave Mansion.
In the firewood room.
Wang Tianjiao was sweating and pulling the bellows while adding charcoal to the firewood stove.
An hour later......
Open your homemade earthen stove, which is full of fine charcoal.
He carried two flat poles, the heavy charcoal was firmly placed on his shoulders, and then walked towards the small courtyard of Li Shuidao.
"Senior brother, I've brought you charcoal." Wang Tianjiao said with a happy face.
"Hmm." Li Shuidao nodded: "Thank you for your hard work, pile it up in the hut next to it." ”
There was a small separate room in the courtyard, and half of the room was piled with charcoal.
Connected to these charcoal houses is a small tiled house.
There are two pairs of medicines boiling under the tiled house, both of which are made of fine charcoal.
As he unloaded the charcoal and exited the room, Li Shuidao appeared behind him.
"Big brother." Wang Tianjiao hurriedly greeted.
Li Shuidao patted Wang Tianjiao's shoulder with a kind face and said, "It's hard work." ”
"It's not hard to do things for the senior brother."
Li Shuidao took out two jade coins from his pocket, handed them to Wang Tianjiao, and explained carefully: "This is my own money, not every month's monthly money, it is a small reward for your hard work, I hope you accept it." ”
Wang Tianjiao accepted the jade money, his face showed joy, and he said gratefully: "Senior brother, thank you for your kindness!" I will continue to work hard to deliver more charcoal. ”
"Well, it's enough for the time being, you can go and rest." Li Shuidao commanded.
"Thank you, brother." Wang Tianjiao left gratefully.
After sending Wang Tianjiao away, Li Shuidao returned to his alchemy room.
The so-called alchemy room is just a side house with sundries, and a few small stoves are used for earth and stone, and the fire source used is high-quality charcoal.
Li Shuidao only needed three first-order elixir pills for the family.
Changchun Dan, Xingqi Dan, Yuheng Dan.
Among them, the "Xingqi Pill and Yuheng Pill" are all pills that are beneficial to the monk's accumulation of mana.
Changchun Dan only has the effect of prolonging life and nourishing vitality, and it is useless to eat more, and it is impossible to break through the "limit" of longevity in any case.
Those who can break the limit of longevity are all top-level pills, not first-order pills like Changchun Dan.
There is only one reason why Li Shuidao wants to refine the Changchun Dan, that is, the threshold for refining this Dan is the lowest, and only charcoal fire is required.
It is precisely because Changchun Dan has such a low threshold that it has become a symbol of testing alchemy.
Only monks who can refine the Changchun Pill can become alchemists.
Only when the Changchun Pill is refined with charcoal fire can it be qualified to refine the "Xingqi Pill", and when the Chengdan rate of the Xingqi Pill is stable, it can refine the "Yuheng Dan" with the best mana accumulation effect in the psychic realm.
Although the three pills are all first-order pills, they are respectively inferior, middle, and upper.
If you can refine the spirit pill, you will also refine the poison pill, the two are the same, there is no essential difference.
As for before, the "Purple Poison Powder" and "Gentian Ash" prepared by Li Shuidao could only be regarded as medicinal powders, not pills at all.
In the corner of the side room, Li Shuidao carefully picked up a bunch of periwinkle, the green leaves exuding a faint fragrance of grass.
He carefully cut off the yellowed parts, put the whole leaves in the oven, and dried them to remove the water.
Then, he took out a delicate stone mill, held it gently, and finely grated the periwinkle.
With the rotation of the stone mill in his hand, the fragrance of periwinkle gradually spread, permeating the entire side room.
Viwinkle grass is the main medicine, and then the plum grass and purple flower are processed in the same way, and after drying these two herbs, they are ground into powder and packed in utensils.
Finally, there is the golden lotus root, which is processed by mixing a casserole with water and boiling a little sand cucumber. When the golden lotus root was removed, it had turned black.
Then add white peony, licorice, bellflower, Chuanxiong and other herbs to make a soup.
This soup is the key to Changchun Dan into Dan, which is called the opening soup.
After making all the preparations before alchemy, Li Shuidao patted the storage bag and took out an alchemy furnace, this furnace is cast in bronze, it is round, about fifty centimeters in diameter, with a dragon beast on it and a tiger shape on it.
The name of this furnace is called Dragon Tiger Ding.
This furnace was brand new, and the alchemy furnace that had just been refined by the refiner was the cheapest.
The older the alchemy furnace is, the more valuable it is.
The process of alchemy will make the alchemy furnace continue to absorb the medicinal properties, resulting in subtle changes.
The magic weapon-level alchemy furnace is a treasure that is naturally born in the process of continuous alchemy.
If this Dragon and Tiger Ding really became a magic weapon-level alchemy furnace, it would be completely out of the mortal womb and become a heavy treasure worth thousands of spirit stones.
The magic weapons in the Tian Yuan Continent are very expensive, and they often cost hundreds of spirit stones.
And this mortal-level Dragon and Tiger Ding also cost Li Shuidao seven hundred jade money.
Changchun Dan's alchemy materials + Dragon Tiger Ding cost him more than 1,000 jade money, not only spent all the monthly money last month, but also consumed a lot of his own savings.
Now he only had three hundred jade money left in his storage bag, and he could only wait for Lan Huaying to pay him his salary next month.
Open the bronze lid of the dragon and tiger tripod, and put the ground periwinkle, plum grass, and purple glow flower into the furnace in proportion.
Gently shake the fan to a moderate heat, add fine charcoal, and shake the fire to keep the temperature just right.
Time slipped away under this fire......
Finally, when the cooking fire slowly went out, a rich aroma of herbs spread.
The smell of medicine is the time to open the oven.
Li Shuidao poured the prepared boiler soup into it through the small opening of the alchemy furnace dragon beast.
Water and fire are blended, yin and yang are mutually beneficial, and nature becomes Dan.
......
There was a harsh sound in the alchemy furnace, and although Li Shuidao had never refined Dan, he could also hear the strangeness of this sound.
He couldn't help but chuckle in his heart.
Soon the cacophony stopped, and calm returned to the alchemy furnace.
opened the alchemy furnace, and in the alchemy furnace, there were six black and round pills, and when he looked at the appearance of Li Shuidao, he felt that something was wrong.
He took out the elixir, put it on the tip of his nose and smelled it, and there was a scorching smell.
Scrapped......
What went wrong?
"Squeak".
The door was suddenly pushed open, and Li Shuidao turned his head suddenly, and saw a man standing at the door.
He was dressed in a golden robe and had a pale golden face, which was the golden-faced Langjun.
At this time, he looked at him with an indifferent expression.
Li Shuidao was slightly shocked in his heart, and quickly stood up and clasped his fists and saluted: "Master." ”
The golden-faced Langjun didn't speak, just walked a few steps closer, carefully looked at the waste pills and said: "But if you practice the waste pill, there is a problem with the fire, you poured the soup too late, the furnace fire has been extinguished, water and fire cannot be combined, yin and yang are incompatible, and the fire poison naturally invades the pill, making this Changchun Dan a waste pill." ”
Li Shuidao suddenly realized when he heard this, and hurriedly clasped his fists and said, "Thank you for your advice." ”
The golden-faced Langjun nodded.
He has always been proud of himself and has never disdained to spy on others, but since being betrayed by the person next to him, his personality has become more and more calm, and he is absolutely wary of anyone, especially those around him.
Just now, when he was meditating and cultivating, he smelled a smell of medicine, so he quietly sneaked into Li Shuidao's courtyard, stood outside the side room and peeped quietly, and watched the whole process of Li Shuidao's alchemy almost from beginning to end.
Li Shuidao's alchemy process is decent, and he is completely like a beginner.
The golden-faced Langjun's attention was on the stove.
Although this alchemy furnace is not a magic weapon, it is produced by the Five Poison Sect Refining Weapon Hall, this kind of furnace is very valuable, at least five or six spirit stones can be bought, how can he be qualified to have this thing?
Where did his spirit stone come from?
I decided to listen to the readers' words for ten shifts and revert to three shifts the next day
